Recorder power triple bill! 🚀 Last night my quartet Block4 premiered our new programme ‘Her Voice: (early) music by female composers’, and we were joined by the amazing Susanne Fröhlich, who mesmerised the audiece with her Helder tenor, with her set ‘Songs of Wind and Wing’! We even got the audience singing a long at the end - not a joke - and it was a joy to have so much recorder love in one hall!

Here at TRPTK, we’ve gone on record saying we like recording records with recorders and urge you to buy these albums in record numbers. 🪈 All jokes aside, we’re ever so grateful for this wonderful review of @block4recorders and their new album “Beneath a Pale Moon” — thank you, Bernadette Pollen at Blokfluitist Magazine! 🪈
